Today, we’re diving into how to create game mechanics and nodes using AI in our “Getting Started with Buildbox 4” series.
With the AI Node Creation feature, you can create game logic and custom nodes without coding. This powerful tool lets the AI modify nodes with game logic or even build custom nodes for you. Do you want your characters to patrol in a circle or attack on command? How about making objects change color, adding timers, or triggering special effects? The AI can make it happen, giving you endless possibilities for creating unique gameplay mechanics.
And the best part? You don’t need any coding knowledge. You can focus on what matters most – designing the game you’ve always envisioned. Whether new to game development or a seasoned creator, this feature opens up a world of creative possibilities. With AI Node Creation, your imagination is the only limit to what you can create.
Below is a quick breakdown of how to add a game mechanic and node using AI in Buildbox 4.
